Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)

Hi, I'm considering getting the Fenix A319/A321 expansion, as I currently only have the A320 base pack. I was wondering, is the only difference the external model (and changes to performance, numbers and flight dynamics)? Are the cockpits identical between the A320 Base Pack, and the A319/A321? Is the sound pack the same or is it customized for the A319/A321? If it's literally just the external model and some performance tweaks, I think I'll just leave it but if there are other changes to justify the purchase, I'd be tempted. Those who have the expansion, do you think it was worth it? Was it worth the cost to have the smaller and longer …

I just wanted to share two fixes that the community has done (it's always the community isn't it?) to fix most of the PC-12 NGX, the default aircraft in MSFS 2024. I honestly recommend the aircraft now. There's still some quirks, the AT is touchy, but I always feel a little weird using AT in a small aircraft like this - I tend to manually control the power. Anyway there's a pressurization fix along with one that adds a nice beta range. https://flightsim.to/file/88952/pc12-ngx-pressurization-fix-msfs2024 https://flightsim.to/file/93030/pc-12-ngx-throttle-beta-range-implementation The only thing left imo is for Carenado to fix the AT and for some…

Are cows part of the fauna that msfs2024 injects? I landed at grass strip Netherhuntlywood, EGIT in Earlston, Scotland. This is about 50 steps off the runway. The cows all look perfect. Even if I walk up much closer to them.

After recently trying out the Asobo scenery ordering tool and found it to be a ridiculous tool that I honestly can’t believe any software engineer would deem it worthy for use in an otherwise excellent product. Some of the issues: 1. UI — why a slider checkbox state for it to appear as a floating window (not consistent with any other part of the MSFS 2024 UI)? 2. I click on the down arrow to move a scenery down the order and nothing happens? Click it again and it moves down one spot. Click it again and nothing, click again and nothing, click 3rd time and moves down 20 spots and the list doesn’t scroll to where it moved leaving thinking it was somehow de…

I purchased my 737-800 from MSFS 2024. Liveries for the 737-800 were immediately available from PMDG on OC3 but not on MSFS 2024 when the plane was released. There was a hack though. If you downloaded the 737 from MSFS 2024 instead of streamed it, you then had access to all the PMDG liveries for free via OC3. After the most recent PMDG 737 update my liveries (all of them) were glitched and looked like what you see below. I tried deleting and reinstalling all liveries through OC3 and this didn't work. So I deleted the 737 from MSFS 2024. It then would not let me download it again. I kept getting a failed to install message after it downloaded. So my only option n…

I suggest following this video. It looks like what he says is: Log into nvidia app and download latest driver Set to "Use 3d Settings" in both places (otherwise your DLSS Swapper choices will not actually show up in the sim). Download new dlss and dlss FG files. You can click the small cog wheel in Swapper to read the text in msfs to see what dlss and presets you are using.

Hi all, I've just posted this in the FSLabs forum, but posting here in case anyone has had something similar. Up until a couple of weeks ago I hadn’t flown the FSLabs since late November, and these issues didn’t occur back then. This is in MSFS2024. When loading the aircraft and reaching the ‘Ready to Fly’ screen, the sim freezes and the background does not pan or change views. This lasts for a couple of minutes and upon clicking ready to fly it can be another couple of minutes before the aircraft it ready. If I press anything in-between this time, then the sim freezes or I get a CTD, so I leave it to fully load before clicking on anything. When spawni…

Hello, does anyone else has the issue in MSFS2024 with the Aerosoft CRJ that during the walkaround mode the chocks and accordingly the GPU disconnect? I have checked the W, A, S, D usages but I could not find a possible visible interference.. or if it related to the distance to the plane itself (but this also seems not be always the case)... Visually the chocks are still in place but I hear a disconnect and it is visible in the EFB. Thanks.

Just had my first WASM crash while flying the PMDG737-800. 25 previous flight without incident. Any ideas about what to check? How common are these errors?

A friend reached out to me with this video and my kneejerk reaction was to dismiss it as a placebo effect, so I jumped into the sim to see for myself. I took a few snaps over the Florida Keys and this is what I found There's a lot more definition towards the horizon. The clouds here are also more naturally elongated, instead of the usual cotton balls we've been seeing. I looked elsewhere and the old look is still in place, though so I'm still thinking it is a placebo effect. Let me know what you guys think.

FlightFX's Citation X uses the Honeywell Primus 2000. Unlike the Garmin avionics suite, like the Garmin G3000 in the TBM or Garmin G5000 in the Longitude, I find the Honeywell altitude and speed data difficult to read on the display. I find them too small. I wouldn't be surprised if real pilots of the Citation X found them difficult to read as well, and it probably explain why the Honeywell was replaced by a Garmin 5000 in later models of the Citation X eg. Citation X+. Is there a better way of viewing the altitude and speed data on the display in FlightFX's Citation X?.

While importing a Simbrief flight plan through the MSFS EFB works fine, I'm getting an error when I try to import weights from the Simbrief part of the EFB. I get the following message in the EFB: And error occurred while importing: error: expecting a pilot section. Searched the net (even used AI but it turned out it's not that smart as they make us try to believe) but I can't find much about this error and so I have no clue what "expecting a pilot section" means. Anybody in here knows what "expecting a pilot section" means or what the problem is?

As a bit of a history nerd, projects like this really pique my interest. When the default world scenery is good enough for this, the possible applications seem endless (even beyond flight sim): https://msfsaddons.com/2025/12/12/time-machine-designs-releases-iron-age-hillforts-of-north-somerset-for-msfs-2024/

Hello, I'm having a shaking issue that's coming from either RealTurb, PMDG or CP. I have my turbulence reality set to low in the sim itself. This is actually quite minor. I'm slightly annoyed I didn't get the harsher video that almost throws me out of the cockpit. If you have 10seconds, would you mind watching this video and offering your thoughts? There wasn't any controlled input - I was on the other side of the room. I'm thinking it's RealTurb and CP not gelling, so I'll uninstall RealTurb for my next flight, but as I only have time to "fly" once a month, I was hoping I could get a head start. Thanks, Mike

Wanted to fly the PMDG 737-800 today. All liveries came with purple checkered wings. All windows were purple too. Ended up flying the iFly 737 MAX instead with no livery/add-on rendering issues. Is this a PMDG or MSFS 2024 issue? I even bought a livery pack from Market Place for the PMDG and same issue.

The PMS50 gtn750 free version has stopped working in my MSFS 2020/2024 Sims. A fortnight ago, it worked fine in the SWS.PC12 and the Flysimware C414W in 20/24. I have the gtn750 latest version, 2.2.59, have uninstalled/reinstalled both of these aircraft and PMS50, but this was not a fix. I can enter a flight plan manually which shows in the map view but I can't change back to flight plan mode. the radio NAV and COM frequencies can't be entered at all, switching between GPS and VLOC1 again, isn't happening. Win 11 and Nvidia drivers are up to date. I don't have the WT G1000/3000 mod - or other conflicting mods installed which, from reading could have caused issues.…

I have been flying the Black Square Bonanza Professional up the west coast the past two days, and it is the best flying i have ever had. I was going from Seattle to Vancouver and visibility was basically zero. What a rush. I love that plane. Anyways, i was thinking should I continue north through to Alaska or maybe head east and pick up some of the Canadian cities? And then it dawned on me on my wife to ask ChatGPT. “Hey can you recommend an around the world scenic flight in MSFS 2024 using the Bonanza?” Oh boy. As quickly as I hit enter it came up with an insane itinerary. Airport legs, what you’d see, other tips (don’t forget the Northern Lights, Mount …

MSFS2024 SU5 introduces new Camera APIs, opening the door for true FlyBy and Tower views to be implemented by third‑party developers—assuming they aren’t already included as native features in the update.

I just noticed that the United Nations building is missing with SS3D New York active.. Is this a known issue, and can it be fixed by changing priorities? ps. This is the Orbx version https://i.imgur.com/oWcsF8e.jpeg Update: I had the V1 version installed, am now updating to the V2 version.. will report back. Yup, that fixed it! 😉

This airport has some sentimental value for me so I bought it after being generally pleased with Propair's version of my home airport, KBJC. Here's what's wrong with KGSU: Its one gate w/ a jetway never worked properly w/ GSX despite using a custom profile for this particular version of KSGU, and despite getting guidance on how to fix the animated PAX walking above the one jetway. Maybe someone else can fix it but I believe I followed Umberto's instructions correctly and yet never could fix it. This is a minor issue but still... BATC does not know it's at either runway threshold. So basically BATC doesn't work there for reasons beyond my understanding an…

Hello, Not sure if it's a known issue with the latest version 737-800 4.00.007 (i wish it was but probably not because i could not find any info about it) but my PMDG is doing weird things recently. It has huge issues staying stable, in my last 4 flights (never had that before, but haven't flown it in a while), at some points it started veering from left to right continuously. See 2 pics below taken a few seconds apart, the predictive white line just go from left to right continously so the plane continues to turn left-right-left-right). It's quite annoying, been flying those planes for years and never had that kind of problem that looks more like what you could…

Having this issue where i am on AP and everything is stable. Then without any input or changes on my part the plane starts drifting right or left and will go into an uncontrollable spiral. It has also happened at various stages of a flight but always on AP. Happened with the C172, C208, Bonanza and A5. Anyone having this issue?

Just wanted to share this awesome addon which is a game changer, sorry, sim changer especially for us 2020 users. Flying at night looks so much better now. MSFS DarkStreets for Microsoft Flight Simulator | MSFS
